Stupid Is as Stupid Does
I'm rather annoyed at the moment, why am I annoyed? I'm annoyed because so called "intelligent" people think stupidity is genetic. I'm sure you've heard of the Darwin Awards, they thank people ever year for removing themselves from the gene pool as if somehow their genes are tainted with stupidity. No, it couldn't be that humans have something called free will or that your environment determines your upbringing (more than your genes). What's really disturbing is that so many people believe it.

It mean its the same flawed idea that the Nazi's put forth, murdering Jews, gypsies, and the mentally/physically disabled to purge themselves of people who would taint the gene pool. In school we're taught that what Hitler did was horrible, and yet despite this his basic idea lives on and is widely accepted in the 21st century. Except, now they leave it up to the individuals to remove themselves. Then they are glad that such people have removed themselves from the gene pool, they're happy that someone died! Not to mention disappointed when they don't die. WTF is wrong with people?
